Extra drops with geology 1?

[DigitalDodo]

I saw videos about using geology 1 to pick up 2 monster drops instead of 1, was this an old bug that no longer exists or is it actually a feature and I missing something?

geology is only from gathering nods
Level 1: Allows you to gather one extra time from bonepiles
Level 2: Allows you to gather one extra time from bonepiles and special item gathering points
Level 3: Allows you to gather one extra time from bonepiles, gathering points, and mining outcrops.

You can get 1 extra monster material per shiny with geologist 1. Any additional levels are for the above.

Only works on bone sources, and most shiny drops in Guiding Lands can give bones so you get two gathers. I think the only monster it works on outside of Guiding Lands is Radobaan and his shinies for hopefully obvious reasons.

The videos you see are specifically referencing shiny drops in the guiding lands, it does still work and is most likely intended since shinies there include bone drops.

there is a bug in grinding lands, which allows right now to pick up shinies twice with geo 1, it works only by monster which drop bone parts literally all monsters except the starter monster of every region( great jagras, kulu, tzitzi, dodo,great girros)

So double shinies with geologist 1, in the guiding lands, only on monsters which drop bones in their loot table?

Geology 1 let you gather 1 more time from shiny dropped by monster in Guiding land .
You still need , however , 3 level of Geology if you intend to mine more from Mining and Bone node .

Yes

Geology 1 works on guiding land material drop only. Plunderblade drop in GL and normal drop outside GL do not benefit from it.
